New England Council, Inc., PDCA is the only trade association that addresses the needs of painting contractors in New England.  NEC is more than 140 members strong, with active chapters meeting all over New England on a regular basis.  Our parent organization, PDCA, was founded in 1884 and currently has over 2000 members nationwide. 

PDCA members participate at a National, Council and Chapter level.  At the national level you will have access to Industry Standards and industry specific publications and the national PDCA website.  PDCA promotes education through Contractor College and the PDCA Accreditation Program.  PDCA also protects the interests of contractors through representation at the local, state and federal level. 

Chapters meet locally to provide members with hands-on and face-to-face opportunities for networking and information sharing. 

New England Council offers a yearly conference, educational seminars, workshops and leadership training and  produces a quarterly magazine. 

Our members are both small and large contractors, residential and commercial.  The common thread among our members is the desire to succeed in business and having the support network available to make that happen.  Consider joining our dynamic organization and grow with us!
